raw_pread_aligned() retries up to two times if the block device backs
a virtual CD-ROM (a drive with media=cdrom and if=ide, scsi, xen or
none).  This makes no sense.  Whether retrying reads can correct read
errors can only depend on what we're reading, not on how the result
gets used.  We need to check what whether we're reading from a
physical CD-ROM or floppy here.

I doubt retrying is useful even then.  Left for another day.

Impact:

* Virtual CD-ROM backed by host_cdrom behaves the same.

* Virtual CD-ROM backed by file or host_device no longer retries.

* A drive backed by host_cdrom now retries even if it's not a virtual
  CD-ROM.

* Any drive backed by host_floppy now retries.

While there, clean up gratuitous use of goto.

I would really prefer not to change the behaviour for this case, it'll
just confuse people looking at the history when finally removing this
hack.

I'm fine either way.  Kevin?

I don't really care about floppies, and I doubt anyone does. Retaining
old behaviour should never be wrong, so if you prefer, I'm okay with it.
